[Community-desktop] problem with desktop always askingforlogindetails when already in...

[michael nt milne]

I've solved it. It was that the application content type entry in the
content type registry was the last entry on the form. I had to create
it as it was missing for some reason. I moved it up above the catch
all entry and above audio and video. The catch all entry must have
been overwriting it or something similar. Anyway files now go across
as ExFiles in desktop. Simply the positioning of the entry. One to
remember.

Thanks for your help.

This is the way I got it working on my laptop. Apparently after getting some help on the Plone list that's all you need to change. So Enfold should know now that I'm trying to copy across PloneExFiles but it's not recognising that as yet on this server.
